Gun grabbing Liberal putz.
Sky, wadr, he was buying back guns from criminals. Those are the guys we DON’T want to have guns.
Do you think soccer moms, or sportsmen, or the average guy who owns a gun to protect his home is selling his gun for a hundred bucks?
Nah. Most of those who sold their guns to Bloomy for $100 are more apt to use the gun to rob you of a twenty dollar bill before they shoot you. It was a good plan, imo, the only good idea he had.
Though i will admit his business background made him fiscally efficient. It was a sight to behold when he raised RE taxes 30% or so, (in my case it cost me $1200), and then gave us a whopping $400 rebate!
Furthermore, he thought he could dictate to other states what their gun laws should be, on the grounds that a gun bought in Virginia or North Carolina affected his city's safety!
Talk about hubris!
To add salt to the wound, the hurdles to honest citizens in Staten Island and other parts of NYC are in the stratosphere.
The truth is he is vehemently anti-gun rights, just like Rudy was and is.
The program you mentioned was nothing but a PR gimmick, as all gun "buy back" programs are. The MSM eats them up, because they sound so good to sheeple and they mask the gun controls real agenda.
It is all about incrementalism. If you throw a frog into boiling water, he jumps out immediately.
Turn up the heat slowly, and he remains in the pot until he dies.
